Explain the process of achieving third normal form (3NF) in database normalization.
- Eliminating partial dependencies
- Eliminating repeating groups
- Ensuring every non-key attribute is fully functionally dependent on the primary key
- Ensuring every non-key attribute is non-transitively dependent on the primary key
Achieving Third Normal Form (3NF) involves eliminating transitive dependencies from a relation. This means ensuring that every non-key attribute is non-transitively dependent on the primary key. This can be achieved by breaking down tables into smaller ones and establishing relationships between them.
